Happy 4th of July

Hi everyone.....tomorrow is the 4th of July (Can you believe 1/2 the year is gone!) Are you out of town with big celebratory plans? At a Beach? Having a BBQ? Well, I hope you have a fabulous 4th of July!

I finally finished my Joji Mystery Wrap....this sucker is HUGE!

Darlene took it over the weekend to block for me. She said if we put hers and mine together (hers is gorgeous!), we will have a nice blanket....oh, and her dog, Susie, had to check it out too!

The LSSK gals are doing Dish Rag tag again this year.....I made a dishcloth for a recipient.....and she got it already....yeah! I hope she liked it!

Then, I finished my 2nd BIG 4 Retreat item. I was a day late. My goal is to finish one item per month, so I should have finished by Friday the 30th, but I finished on Saturday the 1st of July. I blocked it yesterday. My friend, Ruby, gave me this yarn and recommended making Convergent with it, but when this Snowmelt Mystery KAL came out....I think the yarn was meant to be this gorgeous shawl. Thank You Ruby....from the bottom of my heart...this yarn said Carrie all the way!

I also worked on my Miss Babs 2nd Destination tour package...this is Llama Drama and the destination is Peru.

Then, I got my July socks started.

I think all in all, it was a fairly productive week.

I did have a stash enhancement of some Must Stash yarn.....it is for Sock School 2017. Stacie dyes this yarn here in SA, TX....but my package took a scenic tour through Virginia and finally made it to me...it was worth the wait!

Well, that is really all I have....one of my friends from LSSK got a Dr. Pepper soda with the most amazing wrapping/packaging.....Isn't it cute! Pet paws and Yarn!

Have a great week!

I have lots of friends knitting knockers lately....it is a great cause!

About Me

Hi, My name is Carrie and I love to knit. I have decided that I am a knitphomaniac! I learned in March of 2009 and I have been hooked ever since. In July/August of 2009, I started a Stitch N Bitch Meetup at my house and it is going strong (http://www.meetup.com/San-Antonio-Stitch-N-Bitch/). I live with my 16 year old daughter and her son, Antonio, who is 7 months old (as of June 2012).
